Gross.

This was my take. Bo was shown to be extremely irreverent in contrast to the Mandalorian cult. Her being confronted by the mythosaur shook her enough to make her not immediately say there's a mythsaur down there right after making fun of the statue description talking about the mythosaur. Not...

I don't care that much and I'm probably in the minority on this but if a TV show is going to have a POV character that doesn't interact with the main POV character I'd much prefer they occupy a large contiguous space in an episode instead of flipping between characters. Such that I'd prefer they...

They should just retcon the entire sequel movies and roll their own Mandoverse.

I don't understand the point of leaderboards in a game where the top 10% of players are already at a massive advantage.

endgame arco buildings were cool. If you built a few hundred of the Launch Arcos (shown on the right) they will "launch". . I never played City Skylines hard enoiugh to get to "endgame" but I hope they have something like that. Whenever I play city builders I try to build as big of a city as...

New egg collection quest that results in a pride bunny for Stomples Day, accessible on live and TLP!

Yeah I had to suspend disbelief on that. I kind of expected them to take custody of Elle, treat her like a lab rat and Joel to come back and break her out. The way they went of, "all right we found this golden goose, let's skip the golden egg part and just see if it has a bunch of gold inside"...

I don't agree with this but it depends on the producibility of it. The brutality of the local human population is predicated on the risk of acquiring resources without getting bitten. Reduce the risk of acquiring resources and the population will be less desperate. I don't know anything about...

I played Fallout 1 after FO3 came out I think. It held up nicely. If you like BG1 I think you'll enjoy Fallout 1. @Rajaah impressive progress! In the time you've gone through a huge chunk of BG1 I've played for about an hour and it's been the only game I've played. Keep us up to date!

One part I did enjoy is the end where Joel's nature as a fiercely protective father figure is exposed in its full brutality. Before the cult episode he was just doing a job, and after he had a second daughter. A running theme in the show is "world's fucked, take care of your own". This is shown...

Enjoyed the season, but had to suspend disbelief and ignore quite a bit to enjoy it. I know nothing about the game. Some of the writing could've been tightened up a bit and I didn't really enjoy the flashbacks. Not super looking forward to the next season because I feel like after watching the...

Old Freeport looks like something artists lovingly did while high on adderall and having to model a hundred other new zones while being highly constrained by a busted 90s PC gaming engine. New Freeport looks like some high school modeling shit.

Keldorn is so powerful as an inquisitor it's hard to justify Anomen in the party. They don't serve the exact same purpose but personality wise Keldorn is everything Anomen wishes he could be.

Oh, yeah I have no idea about no weight mods. No weight mods is cheating 100% and I've done it in a ton of games. Inventory managmeent is the dumbest mechanic.

It think it's the BG Tweak pack Tweaks Anthology that reduces the ways party members can ragequit. I don't know if it's possible to have those three in a party long-term without mods though. I never rolled with Dynaheir.

I was curious so I looked it up. Looks like it's possible to pick the Idiot Savant perk in FO4 which randomly triples your XP and then savescum until it triggers. Looks like people in that thread got triggered for being told they were cheating. Go ahead and cheat, folks, nobody cares. I cheat...

Also, purely coincidentally, I learned how to savescum in Rogue when my dad taught me as a kid. Because it's 100% random you basically can only be likely to win if you savescum before opening a new level, explore that new level and save when you finish and then regenerate and replay that level a...

I don't remember what I was preaching but save scumming is cheating. I save scum all the time. I usually add weight / inventory unlock mods after getting my fill of inventory-management suffering. Just done too much damn inventory management in my lifetime of gaming. Shit got old in Rogue

Breach and clear got me through BG in my solo playthrough. That and stealth->backstab->runaway at mach3. Standing two screens away and letting five different pulsing AE effects just easy-bake-oven everything while you send in random groups of summons was super strong. In my current playthrough...

I pretty much 100%'d Skyrim and FO4 at release. Even if they had bugs they weren't broken pieces of trash.

I really like Wild Mage. I might include it on my BG2 run, but I'd really have to delete My Gold! effect in Wild Surge. No matter how fun it is to be able to cast wild surges all over, having an effect that can takes away 80% of your gold at random is terrible...

You can ditch Dynaheir. Just go into a house, boot her from the party and leave the house before she talks to you. Talking to you triggers Minsc's script to leave. In my playthrough there's a house in Beregost with an angry Dynahier and a sign labeled "DONT OPEN ANGRY BITCH INSIDE"...

Khalid is cursed to be the first party member to get the boot by everybody. Betas finish last.

Just looking at the first three, if you get Luclin first doesn't that make the other two faceroll easy and mostly irrelevant (epics not withstanding)? I think I'd be more interested in grouping more expansions together.

Would be interesting to see the #s on $ spent per account on Vaniki. Big question is how to fleece EQ players by providing them an enjoyable EQ experience that is hard enough for them to want to dump a bunch of $$$ into. TLP EQ is so braindead easy that all the krono purchases are just to skip...

As the person who pulled that idea out of my ass and called it confirmed in An Experimental Year in TLPs | Page 3 | EverQuest Forums , I also support massive changes to class balance in a given TLP as long as the rules are announced ahead of time. If you roll wizard on a melee quest server you...

I never tried a dual-class because I felt like there is only a window where a dual-classed kensai/mage (or whatever) is optimal, but before and after that window other options are better. Plus I reroll at the start of BG2 (or whenever I feel like it).

An 50% incombat runspeed would be interesting. And make for a terrible DOA server.

Yeah, and I find that for the kind of autist gamers in this thread any stat-based RPG like Baldur's Gate is most difficulty early on before we have an opportunity to completionist / metagame it. So the "optimal build" in the early and mid-game might be more important than end-game anyway. The...

The only game I've ever murderhobo'd in is Ultima Underworld and more-so than any other game it feels like the best choice. The game is so constrained because it's just a dungeon with 8 levels with no respawning (I think?) and most NPCs aren't hostile, and many of the friendly NPCs have the best...

Ke Huy Quan winning best actor is an interesting bag of emotions. I know nothing of EEAO's casting or backstory but I'm guessing that conversation went like, "OK, we need to cast a man who represents a lifetime of regret. We'll spend a few hours deriding him as a fucking loser who held back the...

A few points: I don't know what the game is like with custom party, but Some classes start off trash and end up good. Examples are monks, multi-classed characters. A fighter/mage/thief multi-class is a classic powerhouse, but in BG1 you spend most of the time being worse than either a mage or...

I still use D_Simpson Baldur's Gate - Guide and Walkthrough - PC - By D_Simpson - GameFAQs as a guide. I just copy that into a text file and erase as I go through the content. All but guarantees you see all the content in BG1. You don't need to really read ahead or spoil everything, just review...

How am I able to smell this thing through twitter? It smells like a boxed fart.

There's a lot of ways to play Baldur's Gate, especially if the difficulty isn't cranked to the max. One run of BG1/2 I just solo'd the entire game with a fighter/mage/thief multiclass. It's easier than it sounds because you can do stealth hijinx and allllll the XP gets funneled to you, so you...

I'm curious, If DPG made another "hard-mode" TLP ruleset in a couple years, what would you recommend to increase popularity? I didn't play on Vaniki but the it seems like a -5 level cap instead of -10, some changes around resist/charm and a change in the level req/rec system wouldn't be a...

It being on Unreal 5 is really interesting. Will probably be a huge boon while adding risk due to how new Unreal 5 is. Unreal 4 never really got a lot of traction as a game to build AAA MMOs on, but Unreal 5 has a ton of compelling advantages and the cost of building a "Black Desert Game Engine"...

Live EQ at release can be extremely lucrative. I can roll in and start farming anything anywhere, the collection items sell especially well. In the last expansion I earned an absolute massive amount of plat. Taking into account the time spent earning/selling it, I *might* have cracked minimum...
